Before long, we'll all be called "sexually incurious" by those people and it'll be categorized as "cognitive development delay" by the "scientific medical community". The medication will be a cocktail of anti-depressants and mandatory gay porn 2h/day. Years of mandatory therapy to all diagnosed. Then, if we're lucky, someone somewhere will just press the nukes button.

Huh why would they change things like that? Are they seeing someone as uncivilized in the real world? Who?

Who are the mentally ill in the real world?

What's the real life analogue here? Who's breeding whom??

No longer should Americans feel targeted.

God forbid someone has a traumatic flashback to slavery some centuries ago, because they were literally there.
It was about time "civilization" became a bad word. Can't wait for Sid Meier's Civilization Settled Lands VII

"Settled" is colonizer language. Off to the cobalt mines with you!

The problem is species ARE different. Smaller species of intelligent beings, with exception of magic races, they are typically similar in behavior as small rabbits vs large species of rabbits.

Well, there is difference that they have weapons, and when they are overcrowded they are killing inhabitants of surrounding countries and conquering their lands. Otherwise they can be jolly fellows.
Barbarian has actually a meaning. And that meaning isn't invading.

Drows are breeding quaggoths.
If quaggoths win combat, they take all bodies, including those of dead quaggoths, to their lair and devour them.
They are semi-intelligent subterranean 110kg heavy bear species. Drows leaders saying "enter the drow army you'd meet a lot of intelligent people who you'd be able to kill and eat them".

Dim-witted is actually a specific term. IIRC Cirno from Touhou is both Genius, and Dim-witted. One of her dim-witted decision was after she killed few enemies by freeze spell and froze a big lake, she decided to sleep on the surface. It created massive fog, villagers were curious what's happening, when they found her happily sleeping on surface of deeply frozen ice, they didn't wait for anything turned back and ran away.


If they were not dimwitted they would be dominant species in the region with strong state, weapons, and tech advantages.

These versions of troglodytes need fat as thick insulation against cold. So yea they are fat and hairy.

Is this still a game about violently slaying monsters to plunder their treasures, or is it about groups of mentally ill sex tourists going around to fuck their way through the monster manual?

You're not allowed to plunder stuff, that's perpetrating a colonialist lifestyle and an imperialist mindset. Or something.

If you are a developer, it's about slaying neighbors and possibly monsters to get theirs treasures.
If you are a WotC slave... it's about licking arse.

Didn't you know that with woketards of the cunts, the objective is to blow the dragon so hard that it falls into a dazed stupor while your raid its treasure?

this mindset is literally why fantasy and sci-fi are fucked up right now. they would call Obi-Wan Kenobi a white settler colonizing Tusken land and denying Luke Skywalker's moisture farming-based way of knowing

I think the issue of all the wokeshit is secondary to the trend of a community that looks down on combat and systemsfags. So many normies (and queers) have entered the space and put play acting and back story on such a high pedestal compared to the rest of the aspects of the game.

I thought everyone knew this. You get bonus starting XP in WoD for being:
- gay
- transgender
- black
- female
- emo
- oppressed background

You get bonus XP for:
- gay sex
- writing an emo poem about how the night is not as dark as your heart
- beating up white men
- raping white men
- enslaving white men

That's what I thought. Now imagine what they do to get bonus XP in game!

Blame Critical Role. That show was probably the main introduction to D&D for most of the normies and each season had placed less and less value on proper tabletop gameplay, world verisimilitude or any kind of proper consequences for the players' actions, in exchange for hours long semi-scripted play-acting circlejerk sessions.

critical role did bring in much needed blood to the hobby, however i always like to compare it to porn. Sex and porn are two different things. If you go into sex thinking it is like porn you are going to be disappointed. Same with critical role and Dnd.

a couple of my friends who I play with got into DnD because of Critical roll. Since then they stopped watching saying that it became more of a show rather than Dungeons and dragons play.

1st book after MM: Dragon Anthology with ten short adventures.
2nd: Starter Set. Kind of sounds like a central hub setup.

Edit:
Forgotten Realms DMG and PHB seems the be the 3rd and 4th release.

Edit Edit:
View attachment 54327

Why keep up with the glacial release pace? There's more paypiggies than ever, and a new version is a fine time to release a whole slew of new books.
